About our wood floor repair in Fontwell

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Fontwell

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Fontwell?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole floor

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
